hyperlexia?

So, I suspect Garrison has hyperlexia. I'm having a hard time finding much about it online, which is hard to believe, because you can find something about just about anything online. We're planning a trip to a place in Chicago to have him evaluated and get some help leveraging his unusual and precocious reading ability to push his speech along. He has difficulty conversing and I hope this will help. Another thing I've been doing, since I'm not teaching right now, is gathering resources for helping G with speech stuff. Testy yet Trying and Adventures in Speech Pathology and Jake's Journey to be a Little Man are currently open in my browser, and I'm grateful for the ideas I've found there and on Pinterest.
